Oh, it must be pizza then...! Have you really never had it? it's really nice. There'll definitely be somewhere we can get that.

Most of the specialty dishes in Tokyo-F are very different from what we would eat back home. Of course, we use spices and herbs, but-- what is the word everyone uses?

Processed...?

The foods we eat back home are usually more direct. We would have some sort of grain and stew. For our meats or fish, we would usually eat whatever could be caught that day, such as rabbit or bear. That meat would either be roasted then or else also put into a stew.

You've eaten bear?

[Wait a minute--]

You can catch bears?!

[This is clearly the important thing here.]

I helped fell one myself--!!

Really?

[THAT IS SO IMPRESSIVE.]

You're so brave, Levi-kun. The only time I saw one, I ran away... N-san had to look after me...!

You don't have a claw...! And neither do you fight with a weapon. Absolutely if you see a bear you should get away immediately!

[ But feeling pretty smug and satisfied at the moment regarding her praise though. In addition to this worry that apparently she faced a bear...!? ]

Oh, I ran right away... I still don't know what it was doing there. I think it had something to do with the mystery?

[Levi missed that game, didn't he? Hiryuu-chan might remember.]

Ah, I think this is it. Shall we go in?

[Here we are: one department store. Enjoy, I guess.]

Mystery...?

[ What... did she get entangled in? ]

I haven't been here yet.

[ Looking around curiously. The stores have things now...?? ]

[She sees you looking around there, and she smiles - feels what, to Levi, must be an unaccountable but unmistakable surge of pride.]

Isn't it great? Actually, Cobalt-san and I were the ones who first asked about this. So it's really amazing we have one now!

[She leads him over to one of the floor plans, looking for the beauty salon.]

Do you want to look around, or should we just go straight to the salon?

Why don't we go there first?

[ She's so cute like this. He just feels she's adorable. ]

After that, we will have much more time to explore and see the various things we received as thanks to your clever request.

All right. Then, it's on the third floor.

[She guides him to the elevators, following the signs for the third-floor salon. Enjoy the sight of a lingerie concession on your way there, Levi - Wednesday has long since stopped turning a hair at such sights, but they definitely didn't have these in your village.]

Ah... here we are.

[She heads to the back, in search of shampoos and towels.]

Do you want to sit down?

[ She will feel a heavy dose of COMPLETE AND UTTER EMBARRASSMENT as they walk by the lingerie STORE. W-What...? Why?? This sort of thing is out in the open???

He's still flustered and fidgetting a little once they get to the salon. ]

Y-yes? OH-- yes. I haven't been to a place like this before, so I...will just follow your direction and lead.

[ F-Finding a seat. ]

[--yes, maybe it should have occurred to her that he might find that embarrassing.]

Okay, um...

[Shampoo. Conditioner. Towels. Apron.

[She's slightly preoccupied as she drapes a towel about Levi's shoulders and turns on the taps at the sink, testing the water on the back of her wrist just like she remembers the hairdressers doing.]

Right. Let me know if it's too hot?

[Then, running her fingers through his hair, she starts gently running the water over his hair.]

It's just fine...

[ Actually, it feels sort of nice. He closes his eyes, enjoying the feeling of her fingers running through his hair. ]

I like the feeling. It is relaxing.

I always like having my hair washed. It's so much nicer than doing it for yourself.

[This is soothing, too - doing this for someone. It's relaxing, and intimate.

[She finishes wetting his hair, then turns off the tap and reaches for the shampoo. The 'normal hair' variety should be what Levi-kun needs, right? His hair's so good as it is, he doesn't need moisturising or volumising treatment... so this should be fine, then. It smells good, too.]

I'm not rubbing too hard, am I?

I am jealous of those who have gotten the chance to wash your hair then.

[ He hasn't done it before but...wouldn't this be nice more regularly? They needn't go all the way here to do so after all, either. ]

It's just perfect. It's like a massage.

Oh, it was only hairdressers. It's nothing, really.

[She lifts her hands away - turns the taps back on, making sure to test the temperature again.]

It is, isn't it? It's one of the things that makes it so relaxing.

[Gently, she starts rinsing his hair again.]

Will you do mine, when I'm finished?

If you would permit me to. I will be very careful.

[ Because of his claw, but he can rely more solely on his left hand. ]
